Landsväg was a two-run post-apocalyptic larp run in Tierp, Sweden in 2014, set in the Solnedgång fiction. It was designed by Anna Sortti, Cornelia Karlslund and Andreas Sjöberg.
Setting and Themes
Landsväg was essentially a car caravan larp along a series of remote country roads in northern Sweden, and each group had to have their own vehicle. Taking place a generation after war and disease had almost wiped humanity out, it was a story of superstition, of comeraderie and of a "last hurrah" for the cowboyeqsue lifestyle of the car-borne scavengers.
Summary
One crew of "diggers" (car-borne scavengers and adventurers) wanted to investigate clues about a mythical major haul, and invited a bunch of other crews to join them for one last glorious adventure into a part of the land known simply as "Helvetesbrännan" ("Hell-scorch"). Once on the road tensions rose and old bonds were broken, as the crews started noticing they were not alone out there...
